String theory and holography provide important points of view on the topological nature of symmetries acting on quantum systems. In this talk I will discuss how symmetry structure can be described from the bulk in AdS/CFT, both from top down, in string theory, and bottom up perspectives. I will discuss how branes can realize non-invertible symmetry operators, and the various properties associated to them such as fusion rules.
